Early Drawing Winners

Winners in the 7th & 8th Early Drawing 

The Pikes Peak Rotary Club has been working with the Colorado Secretary of State to bring the house raffle to a close. Some tickets were never entered into a drawing, and therefore did not have a chance to win something. We have two resolutions for ticket buyers.

We contacted ticket buyers who purchased tickets after June 2 to let them know they are eligible for a refund. The deadline to request the refund is September 20, 2010.

All ticket buyers who purchased before June 2, 2010 were entered into a final drawing. We held early drawings #7 & #8 following the raffle rules with the following exception: 1) the ticket minimums have been waived; 2) the date of the drawing was moved to August 20, 2010.
